do not let apathy be the norm. mourn the lives of strangers you have never met. love the children across the globe, who's names you never knew. fascism thrives on dehumanization. do not give it a space to grow.

[Rosebell Kagumire @RosebellK]

In old age women have more friends & connections than men. Your beer buddies are either gone or never cared that deeply.

Surviving Women’s subjugation requires one to make many connections

And thats why the myth of a woman dying alone if they aren’t partnered is just that!

The training for CSOs on the database is vital in making the #UPR process homegrown & relevant to Ugandans. It assists CSOs in tracking the implementation of recommendations, monitor human rights violations & prepare to participate in reporting on the 5-year cycle. ~ @kasiryeElly

[Asia Russell @asia_ilse]

Some media from #StopStockouts action yesterday, #Ugandan activists demanding @GlobalFund, @PEPFAR and GoU deliver lifesaving drugs. Kids & adults who already know their options for effective treatment are severely limited are demanding accountability--this crisis must stop.

What's with this world and policing the female body? Tell these characters to speak truth to power, they will go mute, but as soon as a woman's body is involved, they suddenly find a microphone.

Africa has previously proved to be a leader in women's issues. Maputo Protocol was th FIRST of its kind to allow safe abortion internationally. Reversal of Roe v Wade will not deter an idea whose time has come in Africa.We demand .@EA_Bunge#PassEACSRHBill https://t.co/1advR24jSf

The victims and survivors deserve justice. The perpetrators deserve a day in court, and due process. The pursuit of these objects remains out collective commitment

It’s a lot of men blaming Sheebah for being sexually assaulted bc of how she dresses. So you admit that you are, in your NATURAL STATE, AS MEN, RAPISTS and completely incapable of self control?

Women have contributed just as much, if not more, to civilization, as men. Civilization is built on the back on women's unpaid labour. I want to rediscover women's history. I want young girls to know that women have accomplished so much and they can too.

[inqilāb @tastefullysaucy]

Theres a reason why mother & daughter relationships are so complex. They're as healing as they are traumatizing. Theres a profound connection btn us. The mother, a victim, victimizes another in the same way. Out of love. Out of fear. For protection. That realization changes you.
